ABOUT THE HARMONY KIDS CO.
Vision
At The Harmony Kids Co. our vision is to empower educators, families and healthcare professionals with age-appropriate tools and trainings to support the children of today, for a brighter tomorrow.
Our resources were developed to help children connect with themselves, with each other, with specific events and places, and with the world.
The Harmony Kids Co. Story
The Harmony Kids Co began many years ago when founder Jennie Abbot first experienced the calming sense of inner peace that yoga provided. She was inspired to learn all she could about yoga and mindfulness and started her teacher training in 2010.
During that time, her daughter began experiencing anxiety and challenges at school. Jennie knew that the practice of yoga and centering were tools she could empower her child with and understood that a positive yoga experience meant techniques and practices created specifically for the needs of the student. Unable to find what she was looking for, she developed her own age-appropriate tools, and The Harmony Kids Co. was born!
Since this time, The Harmony Kids Co. has grown and evolved. Our attention is now focused on how we can positively impact the future by providing children, and specifically those who guide them, with the knowledge and tools to foster social, emotional and physical well-being.
